Last month, Australia’s Prime Minister The Hon. Malcolm Turnbull MP, welcomed ASEAN Leaders and the ASEAN Secretary–General to theASEAN-Australia Special Summit. The Summit was a historic and unprecedented opportunity to strengthen Australia’ strategic partnership with ASEAN and to promote enhanced cooperation between countries. The program included a Business Summit which was attended by more than 100 high-profile CEOs from ASEAN and Australia who shared their insights about how to enhance economic cooperation and business outcomes in the region.

Over the past 20 years, ASEAN’s combined GDP has more than doubled, consumer spending has grown significantly, urbanisation and internet penetration have increased rapidly. The number of ASEAN middle class is expected to reach 400 million by 2020. The region’s cities are booming and an additional 90 million people are expected to move to urban areas by 2030. At the same time, Australia has enjoyed a record 26 years of uninterrupted economic growth, fuelled by its diverse world-class industries and by being located close to one of the most dynamic high-growth regions of the world. Now is the time for businesses in Australia and ASEAN to take advantage of the once–in–a-generation opportunity this region offers to further strengthen ties and commercial relationships.

AustCham Thailand is pleased to be hosting an ASEAN-Australia member briefing prior to the April Sundowners event, in collaboration with the Australian Embassy in Bangkok and the Department of State Development, Government of South Australia.

H.E. Paul Robilliard, Australia’s Ambassador to the Kingdom of Thailand, will provide a brief overview of the ASEAN Australia Business Summit. Leading business people from Thailand will also offer their views about future business trends and opportunities in ASEAN and with Australia. This will be followed by a panel discussion and opportunities for Q&A.

South Australia is, and always has been, outwardly focused. Now more than ever, the world is interconnected. Distance presents fewer barriers to communicating with and selling to the world. South Australian businesses can offer knowledge and expertise globally. These are the new horizons for South Australia.
